I'm thinking of going on the pump but im not to sure? what are people's view's? or anyone who uses a pump? i'm 18 by the way 🙂
 
I'm not a pumper, but there are lots of people here who are, so I'm sure they'll be along to help answer your questions very soon 🙂

Have you seen the website http://www.input.me.uk/ ? That should help with a lot of your questions.
 
Like anything it depends. How good is your control on mdi? Does your long acting cover your basal needs well?
It is a lot of work initially, missing meals and testing during the night, but well worth it
